Abstract
We show that when the coherent superposition of two dark spatial solitons is used as the initial condition for an optical beam, it will form an asymmetric optical Y-junction after evolution in a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. Using a computer-generated holographic mask to provide such a required initial condition, we demonstrated that an asymmetric optical Y-junction can be formed in a photorefractive BTO crystal.
